This episode was okay. I really enjoyed the scene with the counselor freaking out as he was put into Tarou's situation in the old hospital . Other than that, nothing really happened in this episode, though I feel like Makoto is going to kill someone soon. Next episode seems promising.

Was it just me or did she said "Dolce Gabana" in the very beginning? @_@

Woah...the Part with the Counselor listening to the tape and start crying was creepy as hell... o.o
It's time to clear a lot of stuff up...

Can't wait for more :D

I don't understand why most of you say that this episode was not up to par. Honestly, it's the first episode where you actually learn something about the scenario and it has probably the most character development in a single episode (Miyako's father, the counselor, Makoto, the spy etc...) so even if there's no action, it's still a very very good episode ;)

In every age, in every place, the deeds of men remain the same.

Jacut is right, in the other episodes everybody is complaining about more and more questions popping out and when u get answers u just say: "nothing really happened" :P. but i dont know, what u learn exactly about Miyako's father. Hes just angry in one scene but u dont get to know why.
My favourite scene of this episode was the one within the counselor scene when u finally get to know, what Tars sister said to him, when they were imprisoned even if not the last word.

Yeah, not much really happened, but the conselor's freeking out more than made up for it XD I'm sure Makoto's knife is going to cause trouble too, specially since he's got all that anger bottled up.

Yeast are fungi, not bacteria. lol I'm more intrigued by what Makoto meant about the curse and just what the hell is he up to with that knife. I don't think this episode was more elucidating than any previous episode. I got just as many new questions as I got answers.

I feel sorry for the counselor, he keeps getting freaked out with absolutely no positive returns (at least Makoto, Taro, and Maiyusuke got to play around in the other world) and in this episode he got mind raped. The fat assistant is really pissing me off, first of all she just creepy but now shes a freeloading bum. If I was Makoto I would call the cops on her, but then again she might be his legal guardian now. I have a feeling that Makoto is going try something stupid with that knife, but Taro will stop him/save him, something of that matter.

Great ep. The scene with Hirata freaking out after living the kidnapping was intense. The ending left me anticipating the next one even more. I wonder what Makoto's motive is.

sooo... if he believes Miyako is the reincarnation of Mizuka... and if he is attracted to her... wouldn't this means this just become wincest? =D
Anyways, the part of the doctor was amazing, it going to be interesting to see what the doctor will do know that he knows Miyako's last words to his brother.
ohhh and that knife.....
huh?

Whoa... the first words we ever heard coming from Mizuka... and they weren't coming from Tarou's memory.

Masayuki and Michio are gathering info from another basis huh? Wonder if he really got ahold of his father's passcode. Interesting. And maybe Miyako's father was being angry at people who wanted to use Miyako.. or something? Is Makoto trying to kill his mom or that other person who's always with his mom?

My decision to marathon this is one of the best I made in this holiday.

The scene with the psychlogist where he could see things from Tarous pov was awesome.

Looking forward to what Makoto is trying to pull with his knife.

Makoto's right. Hell Girl kills in exchange for a cursed soul lol. Knew he was going to his mom's place but he's super angry what's he planning? So he's actually following what the Servant asked while being tsun?
Oh this therapist feelsbadman, revealing the most important last words that Taro's been seeking.

Tetris is actually given to trauma patients. Theres something about it that is supposed to help if done right after a trauma occurs and even later on to help with ptsd and anxiety. So it fits with the theme of the show. It could also be a method of escapism. It seems like either something bad happened to his mom or she started cause her husband is a cheating sack of garbage

Woah Makoto, why are you so fixated on killing your mother, what happened. Also the psychologist scene was kind of scary, lol.

Masayuki's dad is an asshole. Dude needs to stop cheating with lipstick tits and play Tetris with his wife already. The psychologist guy projecting himself into Taro's past was unexpected, but funny. I wonder what the implications of that will be going forward.
